Okay, my vinyl kick is over (for now). This week I have Spectres by Blue Oyster Cult for you. I must say, BOC is a new discovery for me. Of course I've heard the big hits, but now I have the complete albums box set, which is where this comes from. And I am definitely into this band right now. About this album:
This is a cool album. I will say it's front-loaded, with side one being very strong. One thing I've noticed while listening to this album as well as others from the box set is how great the guitar playing is. I've just never given BOC a chance before, and I'll admit that has been a mistake. Yep, some of their songs are weird or have really weird titles, but who cares? Just listen.
